decisive vote. Relative to the fate of

What the house will do is Of course an
open question, but, Judging from par
tial canvass OF the members this even
ing, the probabilities are that the veto
will be sustained in that body. The
contest over the removal Of the United
States court from Yankton to Mitchell

cary one-third. Then Sioux Falls wants

The legislature has been made the
scene OF brief discussion of some
charges against the management of the
Yankton insane asylum, preferred by
one or two discharged employees. This
is not unexpected. The superintendent
of the asylum found it necessary to
break up nest of incompetent and
worse than worthless employees who
had resisted his authority as the head
OF the institution. Their revenge comes
through the medium OF charges OF
q not very serious nature, il true. Not
being true their effect will go no further
than the momentary interest their pre-
seDtation excitea. Having received the
statements Of these disgruntled ex.em-
ployees and discussed them in open
eession, the legislature is in duty bound
tn make thorough investigation of the
allegations presented. This much is
due the superintendent, the trustees,
the friends of inmates and the general
public. It will be unfair for the legis-
iature to stop short of this. ).

The bridge authorizing the Duluth,

One of the measures before the legis-
lature which is entitled to favorable
action without any delay is the bill to
reimburse the city Of Madison for money
e1pen led in the construction OF the
normal school building at that place,
The building erected at Madison by the
territory burned few months ago, Like
all public institutions it was uninsured
and was therefore q total loss. Rather
than permit an interruption of the
school, which had attained high de-
gree OF excellence, the people OF
Madison advanced the funds for tho re-
construction OF the edifice and through
their public spirit it has been fully re.
stored. The Madisonians now ask the
territory to return the money advanced
to rebuild the school.

Dakota democrats who train with the
anti-dlvision faction are cackling loudly
over the recent discovery that Dakota
has never asked to be admitted into the
union. They mean BY this that the
whole of Dakota has never applied FOL
admission and they allege that all com.
plants because the democratic house
has refused to admit Dakota should now
be withdrawn. If Dakota waits until
it's people ask for Its admission as one
state it will remain territory forever.
Its people have studiously avoided ask
ing for that which these democrats
charge them with having neglected, but
have given congress plenty OF opportn--
mites to admit Dakota in accordance
with the wishes OF those most interested.

the territorial legislature adjourns and
that the machinery of state government
will be put lii motion. This eommuni-
cation contains ar ,ntima.ion that the
territorial authoritI,s may attempt to
disperse the state gathering by force and
alleges that In such an event force will
be met by force and that majority of
the territorial militia is in sympathy
with the state government, backed by
5000 men who are ready to volunteer at
q moments notice. We do not appre-
hend the slightest danger of any col
lision over this affair and deem it an in.
diligence in imaginative extravagance to
dwell upon such contingency. There
IL no authority for any armed interfer-
ence with the plans of the state workers.
Such interference would be only the in.
reference of an armed mob, which the.
sheriff OF Beadle county would have au-
thority to suppress. We hope to see the
state legislature meet in March, IN aocor.
dance with the promise of the DeSmet
letter, and proceed in On orderly manner
